E-commerce, Retail and DTC
Quick answer
Monitor AI product recommendations and citation sources in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Hong Kong.
Why AI visibility matters
Shoppers increasingly ask AI "what should I buy" before they ever open a marketplace. In mobile-first markets like Indonesia and Malaysia, AI product discovery is growing fast — and the brands it names are often local marketplaces and homegrown labels, not the global names. If AI recommends a competitor’s product or a marketplace listing instead of yours, the sale is decided before the shopper reaches a product page.
E-commerce and DTC live or die on product discovery, and that discovery is shifting into AI answers — especially in Southeast Asia. Recommendations are category- and market-specific, and local marketplaces (Tokopedia, Shopee, Lazada) and domestic brands frequently dominate. Quratic tracks how AI recommends products and brands in your category across Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Hong Kong, and reveals the local sources shaping those answers.

Frequently asked questions
- Why is e-commerce AI visibility different in Southeast Asia?
- Local marketplaces (Tokopedia, Shopee, Lazada) and domestic brands often dominate AI recommendations in Indonesia and Malaysia. Global tools miss these local citation patterns.
- Should I track product-level or brand-level prompts?
- Both. Brand-level prompts (“best X brand in Indonesia”) track overall visibility. Product-level prompts (“best running shoes under $100”) track category discovery where purchase intent is highest.
- Can I track prompts in Bahasa and Malay?
- Yes. Each prompt carries its own language and market. Track Bahasa Indonesia prompts for Indonesia and Malay for Malaysia, both collected from local residential IPs.
- Does Quratic track AI Overviews for shopping queries?
- Yes. Google AI Overviews and AI Mode are tracked alongside ChatGPT and Perplexity, so you see how product recommendations appear across the surfaces shoppers actually use.
